Now, you can locate USB devices such as portable hard drives and external video capture devices to make better use of your workspace. This 5-meter (15-foot) cable has a built-in equalizing chip that delivers a reliable connection, with no signal loss, beyond the 3-meter limit of standard USB 3.2 Gen 1 cables. The USB3SAB5M is backed by StarTech.com’s 2-year warranty for guaranteed reliability. Review: Works as expected - Usb hub (13) for sims - now i'm happy with my cockpit, finally Review: Not cheap, but great if you need a long cable - This is a loooooooooooong 30-foot USB-3 cable. This is the type of cable that you might use in a conference room and the like. I will say at over ninety-five bucks, it’s certainly not cheap. . . . and perhaps other extenders might work and be less expensive. . . but. . . for a single cable, this one works great. I haven’t had any issues with transfer speeds, connectivity and such. Some other StarTech cables have a lifetime warranty and this one shows two-years. ## Features - Designed to exceed standard USB 3.2 Gen1 cable lengths, the signal is automatically re-equalized to reach up to 5-meters distance - Guaranteed reliability with our 2-year warranty ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0123H4CGK | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,034 in USB Cables | | Brand | StarTech.com | | Brand Name | StarTech.com | | Cable Type | USB 3.0 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Amazon Tablet Models | Amazon Fire HD 10 11th Generation, Amazon Fire HD 8 11th Generation, Amazon Fire HD 8 12th Generation, Amazon Fire HD 8 7th Generation, Amazon Fire HD 8 8th Generation | | Compatible Devices | PC | | Compatible Phone Models | No Compatible Phone Models | | Connector Gender | Male-to-Male | | Connector Type | Usb, Usb 3.0 | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 out of 5 stars 49 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 5000 Megabits Per Second | | Frequency | 5 GHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00065030861342 | | Included Components | USB cable | | Indoor Outdoor Usage | Indoor, Outdoor | | Item Length | 5 Meters | | Item Shape | Round | | Item Type Name | Startech.Com SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Cable - USB Cable - 16.4 Ft - Black | | Item Weight | 9.12 ounces | | Manufacturer | Startech.com | | Model | USB3SAB5M | | Model Name | USB3SAB5M | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pins | 9 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Portable | | Outer Material | Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) | | Part Number | USB3SAB5M | | Recommended Uses For Product | transferring data | | Special Feature | Portable | | UPC | 065030861342 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 year warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** StarTech.com - **Cable Type:** USB 3.0 - **Compatible Devices:** PC - **Connector Type:** Usb, Usb 3.0 - **Special Feature:** Portable ## Images ![StarTech.com 5m 15 ft Active USB 3.0 (5Gbps) USB-A to USB-B Cable - M/M - USB A to B Cable - USB 3.2 Gen 1, TAA (USB3SAB5M) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GawoQbkHL.jpg) ![StarTech.com 5m 15 ft Active USB 3.0 (5Gbps) USB-A to USB-B Cable - M/M - USB A to B Cable - USB 3.2 Gen 1, TAA (USB3SAB5M) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710UcDURnFL.jpg) ![StarTech.com 5m 15 ft Active USB 3.0 (5Gbps) USB-A to USB-B Cable - M/M - USB A to B Cable - USB 3.2 Gen 1, TAA (USB3SAB5M) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71fQkh5IbQL.jpg) ![StarTech.com 5m 15 ft Active USB 3.0 (5Gbps) USB-A to USB-B Cable - M/M - USB A to B Cable - USB 3.2 Gen 1, TAA (USB3SAB5M) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91nf0RiDoHL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works as expected *by K***R on May 8, 2026* Usb hub (13) for sims - now i'm happy with my cockpit, finally ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not cheap, but great if you need a long cable *by G***N on August 11, 2016* This is a loooooooooooong 30-foot USB-3 cable.

In the past, I've tried lots of solutions but this cable works perfectly for me. I was able to use my MacBook Pro running on the battery and have only the 10m extension cable attached. I had great transfer speeds between the system and the external USB 3.0 RAID array. Build quality is very good overall. The cable is thicker than the old USB 2.0 standard since it has 9 conductors inside rather than the 4 wires used for the older specs. The cost is higher than other cables because of the active electronics inside the cable. It's actually $10 cheaper than an active USB 2.0 cable I bought years ago, so it seems like a pretty fair price when you take inflation into consideration. The extra speed is a bonus for certain. Be aware that this cable can only be used on USB 3.0 devices. Since the"B" end of the cable has an extra section, itwill only work in a USB 3.0 "B" socket. The "A" side that plugs into your computer will work with any USB standard, but will only give you the speed of the USB standard you're connecting to. In other words, you'll get maximum speed in a USB 3.0 or higher port on your computer. Although I don't need to use this cable on a daily basis, it has a permanent home in my laptop bag. ## Frequently Bought Together - StarTech.com 5m 15 ft Active USB 3.0 (5Gbps) USB-A to USB-B Cable - M/M - USB A to B Cable - USB 3.2 Gen 1, TAA (USB3SAB5M) - Cable Matters 2-Pack 5Gbps USB Extension Cable - 3ft, USB 3.0 Extension Cable, Male to Female USB3.0 Extender, Compatible with Webcam, VR Headset, Printer, Hard Drive, Black - SF Cable, 3 Prong Plug Adaptor.
